@Moon @CentaurBreeder @firefish @animeirl @coolboymew @dragnucs So I started using fediverse (circa 2017) on SPC and similar instances. There were several major issues. The most prominent issue however was the Skype problem, and this is still a very real thing with the fediverse. Back in the days of Skype, there was always "that one freetard" who would try to get the group on Mumble and it always failed and everyone went back to Skype. It's always excuses or "we're not signing up for that site lol just use Twitter" when there is a very real case of battered wife syndrome, none of them see themselves coming across like a normie bitching about his job but breathing down your neck to get one too.

Later on I heard stories about groomers on the fedi, drama about how "xyz instance owner is this or that", and similar stuff and was put off as well. Only in 2021 did I begin to use fedi seriously and at that point I had no attachment to my former friend circles as they all now had stripper names or tried to get down with Big Tech Employee (tm) Twitter.
